Ilmenite Reduction

Hydrogen reduction is one method currently being tested by many Universities. Products of hydrogen reduction are free iron, titanium dioxide (TiO 2), and water, which is split to recover the hydrogen and produce oxygen.. The basic process is to separate ilmenite from lunar soil, crush it to a fine powder to maximize the surface area, and then heat it in an …

The Role of a Mixture of Coal and Dolomite in the Direct Reduction …

The process of making direct reduced iron from low-grade iron sand concentrate has been successfully performed using a gas-fired furnace to simulate real conditions in the industry using tunnel kilns. The ratio of coal and dolomite used in the mixture bed can affect the reduction in iron oxide and ilmenite in iron sand concentrate.

Electrochemical techniques have been used to investigate the reduction and dissolution of two different ilmenite samples in 450 g L − 1 sulfuric acid solutions at elevated temperatures. The results have shown that the dissolution rate of ilmenite (FeTiO 3) is low at potentials above about 0.3 V at which potentials the dissolution of ilmenite …

Experiments have been performed in the presence of both an inert (sand) and an active (ilmenite) bed. The evolution of solid-phase transformation with reduction time has been interpreted using the X-ray diffracti on method. The presence of magnetic phase enhances the extent of iron removal from the reduced ilmenite by acid leaching.
